The War That Never Ended

Atomizer

When they tell you that it's all in your head

The unrelenting screams of both the living and the dead

And they tell you that the war is over, the dead are buried deep

The final battle's been and gone, war is the way of the world

No notion of illusion dwells in that, you choose the path of the righteous men

Did they really think that you'd just switch off?

Did they really think that you'd live through that, and still be the man that you were?

Did they even have a notion of just what you'd become?

Looks like they really planned your fate

It's the war that never ended, still raging on inside your head

And what drove you then, still drives you now, the war

Compelled by a swarm of black emotions that won't subside

The war manifests in all you see, sense and feel

Through fevered dreams, full body sweats, unfulfilled campaigns

It's the storm you know never abates

The war that never ended summons you awake in a glaze of sweat

The war that never ended, the war
